<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I EMPHATICALLY disagree that "This decision is a start towards a more democratic government!!"  There are things to be said on both sides, but that statement is pure ignorance. 
 Justice Kagan sums it up -- "A rule of judicial humility gives way to a rule of judicial hubris."  Executive branch bureaucrats have some political accountability, and work from records that are thousands to hundreds of thousands of pages.  Judges don't. 
 (Yesterday, Justice Alito in <i>Moyle</i> patted himself on the back for mastering a record of 1300 pages and a couple hours of oral argument.  If an agency had made a major decision on such a thin record, it'd be arbitrary and capricious.)<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">On balance, I think Justice Kagan looked more carefully at the statutory text and history, looked at a lot more of the practical consequences, thought more carefully, and exercised
 more judgment.  Kagan notes how Chevron has narrowed since its high-water mark in the late 1990s -- I agree, back then, it was a real problem.  But it self-corrected.  (Her explanation is darn close to my brief  
<a href="https://ssrn.com/abstract=4520183" target="_blank">https://ssrn.com/abstract=4520183</a> )  I suggest reading her dissent (starting at page 82) first, then read the majority -- the majority's willful blindness is pretty apparent if you read Kagan first. 
 (I did it the conventional way, but I was deeply steeped in the case, so I could see my "magical thinking" flashers going off as I read Roberts.  If you're not an administrative law expert, read Kagan first.)<o:p></o:p></p>
